We are a family called by God to church planting in Spain, where we have been serving faithfully for the past 12 years.

The first four years of our journey were dedicated to cultural learning and understanding the Spanish context. During that time, we supported a fledgling church in Toledo for two years, followed by two years serving a century-old church in Jaén, in southern Spain. This season gave us firsthand experience in both Spanish culture and the evangelical landscape of the country.

In 2019, we entered a second phase of our calling when God led us to the Basque Country in northern Spain, specifically to the Uribe Kosta region. This area is made up of approximately seven towns and has a population of around 150,000 people—yet at that time, there was no evangelical presence or church in the region.

As a family, we settled in one of these towns, Berango. God opened the door for us to work alongside a church that shared the vision of starting a new ministry in Uribe Kosta. During our first year, this church walked with us, supporting our adaptation process and helping us gain a deeper understanding of the region and its people.

That same year, God allowed us to begin discipleship with the very first family who accepted Jesus, along with a woman who also came to faith. Since then, the Lord has continued to add people to His kingdom, and we have had the joy of discipling them as they grow in their faith and in their relationship with God.

In 2022, God provided the opportunity to rent a space where we could begin regular Bible studies. The journey was not easy. There were days when only our own family gathered to read the Word and pray. Yet God gave us the grace to persevere, and little by little, more people began to join us.

To God’s glory, today we are 35 members strong, forming the first evangelical church in the Uribe Kosta region.

We feel profoundly privileged that God is using us to make His name known in these lands, with a firm commitment in our hearts to be a light and to bear faithful witness to Christ.

Finally, we want to emphasize something very important: we are not alone. We are deeply grateful for the support of two missionary units who have fully embraced the vision of planting this church with us! Behind our family stands a faithful network of people who support us through prayer and financial partnership. Together, we are reaching the Basque people for Christ.
